I am manipulating a style on elements with class="House" or "Senate." Unfortunately, it sets the style for every child underneath.
The tree is like this: AL House of Representatives Member Member Member Senate Member Member Member House has class="House." Senate has class="Senate." This is just the label next to a checkbox that either says "House of Representatives" or "Senate." I am using that label for a mouseover function, where the label turns blue and is italicized for clicking. Beneath this are all the Representatives or Senators, as children of the previous element with class="House" or "Senate." So, now, when I mouse over any of the children, they italicize as well. This occurs due to my command that says $(".House,.Senate").mouseover (function()..... I need something to control only the top level, e.g. $ (".House,.Senate"(but not their children).... Does anyone know the way to do this?
